Couple of hours… each morning? Did you win the lottery or something?

Not OP, but I am in a blue collar job and do the same. I get up at 4am and between brewing then drinking my coffee, eating a small breakfast, using the facilities, and doing general stuff getting ready to go to work, I then leave about 615am and clock in by 7am. I either read or listen to the news the whole time, or in this case, I also replied to your comment.

The Intercept - For their insightful investigative pieces, which are becoming so rare these days.

Ground News - to see what different news sources from across the left/right spectrum are reporting and how they’re reporting it.

AP, BBC, and NPR for general news. Been on the hunt for some English language news covering the rest of the world and provide an outside look at US news.

Facebook feed of 60+ raptor rescues and wildlife photography groups and Google News search for owl news to post to !superbowl

Lemmy Top 6 Hours for any breaking news and news about stuff I wouldn’t normally look for.

If anything really catches my eye, I’ll generally Google it to get at least one other article from a different source to get more info or a second take on the story.

I don’t go out of my way to get news, so social media/Lemmy. Except for local news, which I do follow more closely. But that’s it.

Mostly RSS for me, incidentally there is a publlic rss api on reddit. You can add .rss to any subreddit URL to get a feed. It’s a nice way to get news from there without actually having to use reddit.

A mix of local news paper and Ground News

Grist Magazine is pretty good, mostly focuses on environmental news

NPR, BBC, Al Jazeera, listen to a daily set of audio briefs from those sources. There is a significant bias in all of them, offset by tempering of social media sources.

Walter Cronkite, they are most definitely not. There is no source of truth anymore.

Mostly RSS news. Sometimes Youtube, Lemmy or socializing.

I prefer listening to stuff in the backgroind over reading so: Electric intifada, empire files, secular talk, Lee camp, and various other left wingers.

Personally I don’t like reading news very much, I just keep various live news feeds up in the background while I do other things. Typically Al Jazeera English, but they rerun segments pretty often throughout the day, at which point I’ll just turn it off, or switch over to CGTN. Occasionally I’ll watch MSNBC or CNN if they aren’t being ultra cringe (rare occurrence) for more US focused coverage, though I can hardly stand to watch either for very long.

Try DW news. I’ve found it fantastic. Also just as good for written news.
